This is a follow-up to a previous thread I submitted concerning the effects of Version 5010 on providers that submit paper claims.
I attended the 16th Educational National Call and submitted the following question to 5010FFSInfo@cms.hhs.gov following the Call.
" I work for a provider that does NOT submit claims electronically and does not plan to convert to EDI in any form as he plans to retire within 4 years.
1. How does Version 5010 compliance affect providers who do NOT submit claims electronically?
2. If the provider is still able to submit paper claims, then will there be any new forms required; i.e., HCFA 1500? And how do I obtain such forms?
Thank you for your response."
This is the answer that I recieved:
" HIPPA 5010 only impacts electronic claim submissions. Paper transactions are not affected. At this time we are not aware of a new HCFA 1500 or UB form under development.
Please note, an additional question and answer National Call will be conducted on Wednesday June 25th from 1:00 to 2:30 E.T. Thank you."
